I think this needs to be brought back to the first page
I'm back... I ended up justifying the $150 purchase lol. Had some scratches on my hands from this due to the small space. But yes, first side I did took a while -- second was a breeze.

I see where the confusion in the other thread comes from now, SpooRk. I thought these were "The clear side markers for the regular Civic" from the thread's title. Derp on me. At this point I don't know wtf that thread is talking about?

Yea I can’t guarantee the $50 ones will work.. the other link is the one I bought from
I can confirm those $50 ones fit absolutely perfectly, for us cheapskates. That's what I have. Job just as you describe, plus trimming the tabs as noted in the eBay listing.

Anyway, I feel dumb.

Fitment kinda shitty on the drivers side for some reason. I think my bracket is wonky from factory. The amber marker was super easy to pop out and then the JDM corner is loose and pops out every few days or so. Passenger side was super hard to remove the amber corner and then the JDM clear snapped in solid so there's def a difference for me for some reason.

Wait, you guys are paying 150 dollhairs for these?

My local dealer here lists them at €27/$32 a side and that's with their own markup on them.

What's the difference between USDM and EUDM/JDM? We have both the amber and clear options here.

Maybe get in touch with someone like Tegiwa in the UK and see if they can stock them and ship to the US.

My EDM ones came in those boxes, fitment was fine. Used Philips Ultinon white bulbs (amber when turned on) to color match.

The only gotchas were that I had to re-use the USDM bulb holder and I also had to feed the bulb holder into the clear housing from behind the fender lining, since the EDM housing had a thicker rear.

Update: after a few days and some warming of the plastic the housing stopped popping out. But ultimately I didn’t like the look of the chrome on SGP so im selling my set $150+shipping to L48. DM me if interested. Local SoFla.

For SGP or any gray or silver color, better smoked it to match the rest of the car.
